This song was inspired by the singer Teddy Thompson, who is the son of folk musicians Richard and Linda Thompson. In a 2008 article published in The Guardian, Teddy Thompson said: "I'm tempted to think my parents may have written me into a song before, but there's nothing that's direct like this. It's a huge honor. I'm friends with Rufus and a fan of his music. He played me the song in the studio. It was a lovely moment. Then he said, 'And now I'm going to play you the song I wrote about Brandon Flowers from the Killers!' That's Rufus.
